Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Does your company have a Change Advisory Board (CAB)?
Not in the typical sense, but we have plenty of standard practices and cross-team checkpoints to limit risk. By the time we're deploying changes to production, the work has had a card created, assigned points (which necessarily involves discussing scope and risk), architected (as a group), code peer reviewed, hit unit tests (automated), integration tests (automated), functional tests (automated), smoke tested (automated) end-to-end tests (a few automated, but mostly manual by QA), acceptance tested (by QA and business), resilience tests (chaos engineering with kube-monkey), been deployed to at least 3 environments (with the same exact same artifacts, just with config changes), and monitored for failures (pod restarts, log anomalies, etc -- all automated). Deploy to production is well communicated, and ANY team can request a halt to the deploy if they have concerns.

What happens when a service fails in your infra, or in other words, do you practice chaos engineering?
Part of being a cloud native company means designing services for failure. What happens, for example, if the payment service/pod goes down? Do the rest of your services continue operating normally? One thing tools like kube-monkey does is automatically kill pods for you on a certain date at a certain time in order to plan for failure events. Just wondering if anyone has dove into the deep end with this type of tooling and really just gone all out, besides Netflix?

Chaos Mesh for chaos engineering in Kubernetes
Chaos Mesh is a popular solution (about 5k GitHub stars), but — obviously — not the only one. E.g., Litmus is a powerful platform to test many things, and kube-monkey might be a good option for more basic stuff.

How many of you actually test your infrastructure code? For those that do, what benefits did you discover that testing brings to your code base?
Exactly the kind of thing I love to see! Sounds like a great use case for a tool like kube-monkey as well.
